Pd is a programming environment for writing things like VST plugins, so I guess most Pd devs would rather write something Pd than use a VST. But its also free software, so anyone who things VST support should be better should definitely work on it.

I think LADSPA and other free plugins are better supported.

Hello PD users,

I am using PD under windows. I'm new to this list, but I've been dabbling in max/msp and PD for a while now.

I know there are some options for loading VST plugins in pd. I downloaded vst~ and I seem to be able to load it into the patcher but I can't find documentation or a home page for it anywhere. I've also heard of a plugin~ external but I haven't found many details on that either.

At a curiosity, since vsti/vst support would massively expand the power, usability, and appeal of PD, why isn't vst support part of the pd-extended distribution?

Thanks,
Austin
